Crane Garbage Skip Rubish Containers

What is a crane trash skip?
It is a 4' X10' steel box, sloped on one end, which attaches to a crane. It is used for transporting a variety of loose materials and debris. Trash skips and steel dumping hoppers are mostly used by construction companies, although commercial landscaping companies also use them at times.

How does a trash skip work?
The trash skip is suspended from a crane by four cables or strap slings measuring 10 feet or longer. The sloped end makes it safe and easy for the crane operator to discharge the contents, even when the trash skip is loaded to its full capacity. Because it is made out of heavy duty steel and reinforced at all stress points, this simple, powerful container can handle almost any kind of trash, debris, or excess material that accumulates on decks or rooftops

The steel dumping crane trash skip will easily hold and safely move up to 12,000 pounds of debris at a time. You can raise it to any height, and then lower it directly onto a clear area on top of a building. Here, your workers can fill it with debris, clear the area, and let the crane operator lift away the debris. If necessary, crane operators can also lower the top of the container parallel to the side of a building, allowing workers to simply push the debris off the roof into the container until it is full.

Is the trash skip easy to use?
Yes. The steel crain hopper is very easy to fill with trash its sides are only 2' high. Workers can shovel or hand load debris without having to reach up and over the sides of the unit and risk back or shoulder strain. This is both ergonomic and time efficient.

The crane trash skip is just as easy to unload because it has the ability to self dump. To release debris, the crane operator sets the trash skip on the ground. Then, the two forward slings that are attached to the lifting eyes closest to the front end are released. The operator then lifts the trash skip using the rear slings that are still connected. This causes the trash skip to tilt forward lets its contents slide onto the ground.

Where are trash skips used the most?
In the construction industry, trash skips are most commonly used to remove trash from buildings. Landscaping companies also use them to unload gravel, sand, and rock used in back filling operations.

What are the specifications of the trash skip?
The unit features a 2.75 cubic yard capacity, and it weighs 1,110 pounds when empty. All edges and corners are reinforced by one-quarter inch steel, and the interior is reinforced by 3/16” steel plate liner.
